  • numeral 1 denotes equipment, in its entirety, for processing containers 2 in which liquid or powder products are packaged; each container 2 presents a neck 3 and a filler mouth 4 closed by fitting a cap 5 (as shown more clearly in figures 3 and 4).
  • the equipment 1 comprises at least one carousel 6, serving for example to sterilize, fill or cap the containers 2, affording a plurality of peripheral spaces 7 in which respective containers 2 are accommodated and processed as the carousel rotates about a vertical axis 8.
  • the equipment 1 further comprises a feed device 9 by which containers 2 are directed singly onto the carousel 6 at an infeed station 10, and a device 11 by which these same containers 2 are taken up at an outfeed station 12.
  • the carousel 6, feed device 9 and take-up device 11 are set in motion by drive means denoted 13.
  • the equipment 1 presents a first carousel 6a that consists in a filling unit by which liquid or powder products are dispensed into each container 2 by way of the filler mouth 4.
  • the filling unit 6a carries supporting and weighing means 14 of familiar type, illustrated schematically and as disclosed for example in patent EP 974548 filed by the present applicant, on which to stand and weigh a plurality of containers 2 as these are filled with a product, proceeding along a circular filling path P1 that extends about the vertical axis 8 aforementioned.
  • the first carousel 6a carries a tank 15 holding the product and carrying a plurality of dispensing nozzles 16 ordered around the axis 8 of rotation, from which containers 2 placed on the supporting means 14 are filled as they revolve about the vertical axis 8.
  • the first carousel 6a receives containers 2 singly and in succession at the infeed station 10 from the feed device 9, which is illustrated as a star wheel conveyor, for example as disclosed in a patent application published under n° EP 1498371 , filed by the present applicant.
  • the star wheel 9 turns on a relative axis 17 parallel to the axis 8 of the first carousel 6a and is positioned to take up containers 2 advancing along a horizontal infeed channel equipped with a feed screw 18 driven by a respective motor 19.
  • a transfer device 20 illustrated likewise as a star wheel turning on a relative axis 21, by which the containers 2 are directed onto a second carousel 6b that consists in a capping unit equipped with a plurality of capping heads 22 associated with a carrier assembly 23 set in rotation by the second carousel 6b about a relative vertical axis 8.
  • the capping unit 6b also carries supporting means 24 on which to stand the containers 2 as they are closed with respective screw caps 5 while advancing along a circular path P2 that extends around the relative vertical axis 8.
  • a capping unit 6b of the type in question is disclosed in a PCT patent application published under n° WO 2005007556 , filed by the present applicant.
  • the aforementioned take-up device 11 operating at the outfeed station 12 consists in a further star wheel conveyor turning on a relative axis 25 parallel to the axes 8 of the carousels 6a and 6b, by which the filled and capped containers 2 are transferred into an outfeed channel 26.
  • the carousels 6a and 6b, the star wheels 9, 11 and 20 and, in the example illustrated, the outfeed channel 26 and the feed screw 18, are connected rigidly one to another by a frame 27 of skeleton construction interlinking the pedestals 28 of the various units (figure 2).
  • the skeleton frame 27 consists, by definition, in a plurality of members 29 connected one to another and/or to the pedestals 28 in such a way as will afford an appreciable measure of rigidity to the structure while also allowing the single components to be transported separately and assembled at the site of installation.
  • the two carousels 6a and 6b and the three star wheels 9, 11 and 20 each comprise a respective pedestal 28 appearing as a base 30 with four splayed legs 31 terminating in four feet 32 planted on the floor.
  • the pedestal 28 presents a tubular body 33 rising vertically from the base 30 and carrying a relative carousel 6a or 6b or star wheel 9, 11 or 20 rotatably at the top end 34.
  • the tubular body 33 of the pedestal accommodates a shaft 35 rigidly associated with the carousel 6a and aligned on the vertical axis 8 of rotation, which turns in a pair of bearings 36 set in relative blocks 37 rigidly associated with the ends of the tubular body 33.
  • the shaft 35 is coupled to the drive means 13, which are thus able to set the carousel 6a in rotation.
  • the skeleton frame 27 is connected to the vertical tubular bodies 33 of the carousels 6a and 6b and of the star wheels 9, 11 and 20, as well as to the pedestals (not illustrated) of the feed screw 18 and the outfeed channel 26.
  • the skeleton frame 27 will consist in a plurality of tubes 38 connected one to another or, as illustrated, to the vertical tubular bodies 33, by way of flanges 39 welded to the ends 40 of the selfsame tubes 38 and welded or bolted to the element with which they are joined.
  • the adoption of bolts as a means of connecting the members will have the additional advantage that the frame 27 can be dismantled entirely or in part for the purposes of carrying out maintenance, replacing parts or moving the equipment 1.
  • the modular nature of the assembly guarantees greater flexibility in embodiment of the equipment 1, with the result that design and construction costs can also be reduced. In effect, the same tubes can be used to assemble the equipment 1 in a variety of differing configurations.
  • Certain of the tubes 38 illustrated communicate internally by way of their respective ends 40 with lateral openings 33a afforded by the vertical tubular bodies 33, and are equipped internally with a power transmission component 41 connected to the shafts 35 rotating within the selfsame tubular bodies 33.
  • a power transmission component 41 connected to the shafts 35 rotating within the selfsame tubular bodies 33.
  • the transmission component 41 comprises a belt 42, preferably a timing belt, looped around pulleys 43 keyed to the vertical shafts 35.
  • the shaft 35 of the filling unit 6a carries two pulleys 43, upper and lower, each engaged by a relative belt 42.
  • the pulley 43 uppermost is linked to the shaft 35 of the capping unit 6b, whilst the pulley 43 beneath is linked to the star wheel 9 operating at the infeed station 10.
  • the drive means 13 comprise a single motor 44, for example of brushless design, positioned above the pedestal 28 supporting the transfer device 20 and coupled directly to the vertical shaft 35 of the relative star wheel.
  • the pulleys 43 mounted to the shaft 35 of the transfer device 20 transmit power to the star wheel devices 9 and 11 operating at the infeed station 10 and the outfeed station 12 (figure 2).
  • the motor 44 in any event, could be installed under any of the aforementioned units or devices.
  • the transmission component 41 consists in a drive shaft 45 of which the opposite ends 46 carry gears 47, for example bevel gears, in mesh with matching gears 48 keyed to the vertical shafts 35.
  • gears 47 for example bevel gears
  • the shaft 45 in question extends coaxially within the tube 38 it occupies and is carried by a pair of bearings 49 located at the opposite ends 40 of the selfsame tube 38.
  • the shaft 35 of the filling unit 6a carries a single bevel gear 48 in mesh with two bevel gears 47 mounted to respective drive shafts 45.
  • the drive system thus outlined could be designed so as to transmit power to the feed screw 18, thereby dispensing with a dedicated motor 19, and possibly to a conveyor belt operating internally of the outfeed channel 26.
  • the equipment 1 could be assembled without transmission components 41 linking the various devices, but with a plurality of single motors each driving a group of devices or an individual device, synchronized in operation by a single control unit to which all are interlocked.
  • the frame 27 is enclosed advantageously by a perimeter guard 50 composed of panels 51 surrounding the selfsame frame 27 completely.
  • the panels 51 of the structure 50 will be assembled on site, hence easily transportable and requiring minimal storage space, and removable entirely or in part to provide access for maintenance purposes.
